Features of 7 X Freezer Heatsink
As a replacement heatsink, the Arctic Freezer 7 X is a compact and lightweight model. His size they are 132 (H) x 110.5 (W) x 74.3 (D) mm weight You are 425 g. In fact, the heatsink increased its size slightly depending on its height and depth, or its depth decreased, according to the Freezer 7 Pro, which had a height of 96 mm. This means that its weight has dropped again, from 477 g to 425 g of Arctic Freezer 7 X.
Another component used for this Arctic Freezer 7 X, is 92mm fan riding in the front. Because, although the Freezer 7 Pro uses a fan without side frames, in the case of the Freezer 7 X the new fan has been upgraded to higher tuli pressure and, as a result, can make the air flow smoothly through the 48 cooling wings that make up the tower of this heatsink.
It is also very important heat pipe arrangement of the heatsink. So, while the old Freezer 7 Pro uses three heat pipes mounted one behind the other, the new model only has two, placed close to each other, so that air flow is more efficient while removing the heat flow between them and attaching to the aluminum pile of the building.
Also related to heating pipes, the new model lost the original copper base, replaced by the system contact these directly through IHS the processor. This system, while not as efficient as using the copper base of the previous model, is an adequate (and inexpensive) way to build a heatsink base. The fact is that most of the cheap heatsinks use this method to build their bases.
The user's luck is that the Arctic has put a layer of their best on the bottom of the heatsink Arctic MX-2 thermal insulation which, in years past, was considered one of the best retail outlets.
With all this, Arctic claims that the new Freezer 7 X heatsink is about 10% more efficient when cooling the processor. And he does get it, with a little bling the outflow of noise, because it falls from 0.5 son to 0.3 son.
Another strong point of this heatsink is high consistency For Intel processors, the manufacturer claims that it has full compatibility with the LGA 775, 1150, 1151, 155, 1156 and 1200 bases. While, in AMD processors, compatibility is compatible with IS3, AM3 +, IS4, FM1, FM2, FM2 +.
